Birthday

Happy Birthday, Craig Laughlin!

Former Cap, Comcast SportsNet color commentator, and hip-surgery enthusiast Craig Laughlin is 54 55 today. Laughlin spent the summer coaching his hockey camp, Network Hockey, at The Gardens Ice House in Laurel, MD. Since his second hip surgery recently, he can be found trading jabs on Twitter with Alan May.

UPDATE: Laughlin corrected us – he’s 55 today and was born in 1957. Several incorrect sources list his birth year as 1958 (and hockeydb lists his birthday May 4, 1958 and Sept. 19 on Hockey Reference. Ugh.).

Let’s also remind ourselves what Laughlin (and Joe Beninati and Al Koken) used to look like:
